BOSTON HARBOR LANDSCAPE DESIGN

Carol and Klaus have owned their Boston Harbor property for over ten years. Klaus had created a dedicated vegetable and display garden but the entry landscape looked the same as it did the day they moved in.

They wanted to remove overgrown trees and rhododendrons to create a more attractive landscape along the driveway and a more inviting entry.

Along the side of the house, they wanted some shrubs and a casual walkway. I recommended a flagstone pathway with ferns, fragrant sarcococca and hellebores to give color and interest to the side of the house.

For the front of the property, I recommended an urn fountain the same color as their front door. The old plants along the driveway were removed, a wider planting bed created, and colorful plants such as spirea, evergold carex, and flax were planted. Stone was added to the planting beds to add additional interest.

The clients now have a lovely landscape to enjoy that is all their own. Outdoors by Design was the installation contractor.

Customer Comments

After a new Dandelion Gardens designed patio and firepit were installed, the customer sent me this note: "Loving it. Last week we were talking about what we would do if a genie gave us three wishes and my son said he'd wish to build a fire in our firepit every night! We all love it." Julie from Elma

After an appointment for a container consultation, Anne emailed me, "Have I told you recently how you inspire me?! The wheels in my mind have just been turning since I saw you today!!...I came to the realization that when you live with something long enough, you just don't really "see" it anymore and don't think to change it or upgrade it. But when I leave your house and come home I NOTICE my tacky, plastic, fake terra cotta pots. So I need your help..."

Kris from Olympia, "Just wanted to send you a note to thank you because I'm thoroughly enjoying every single day of my 1st spring with my new plants! ...I've been walking the yard nearly every day studying what color is coming, what's forming buds, what's leafing and so on. The deer travel in and then out without eating a thing...thank you for the thoughtful deer resistant choices. So I just wanted to check in and let you know I couldn't be enjoying our plants any more."
